The nation's largest Protestant denomination will ask its members to approve a resolution calling for a reversal of the Supreme Court's landmark gay marriage decision.

Note them prioritizing childbearing and not childrearing.
A lot of these conservative groups have their heads fully packed with eugenics and social darwinian philosophy. The goal is to just keep popping kids out and come-what-may. Eventually, a large enough population will produce some ubermensch. And then you breed the ubermench to get your prodigies and your messiahs.
It’s Genetics meets Calvinism. If you succeed, its because you’ve got the Purest Blood. If you fail, it is because you have trash DNA and should be cleansed to make way for the superior people who will follow.
Southern baptists were pro-choice until the rise of the “moral majority” required southern baptists to fall in line with the catholic church on abortion to create the supply side Jesus we know today.

Part of conservatism is the idea that “the more complex a solution is, the wronger it is.”
Another part is “We should be able to control women’s use of their hoo-hoos for pleasure by restricting them to being baby chambers.”
Here we have a venn diagram where the circles are the same.
Easy way to rule these fuckers out is to get them to say “vagina”
If they can’t do it without giggling, offence, or claiming obscenity, out they go
